Hi,
I want after selecting an item in the dropdown it is marked with a location (eg a check mark) so that I can see the selected location next time!
How do I achieve this? (Is there any simple way?)

Hi Khann 
 
Thank you for your patience. 
 
We have fixed the reported issue with SplitButtonAdv and please find the patch for the same from following. Using this patch, now you can able to set the image for selected item in splitbutton dropdown using the following code: 
 
Code: 
 
 
private void SplitButton1_DropDowItemClicked(object sender, ToolStripItemClickedEventArgs e) 
{ 
e.ClickedItem.Text = "Yellow"; 
e.ClickedItem.Image = Bitmap.FromFile(@"../../help.png"); 
 
} 
 
 
 
 
Screenshot: 
 
 
 
   
Recommended approach - exe will perform automatic configuration.   
   
Please find the patch setup from below location:   
   
 
 
Please find the patch assemblies alone from below location:

Hi Vijayalakshmi ,
I want to keep only the previous selectedindex (only one instead all), how do I change this:


my test code:
 private ToolStripItem t;
        private void SplitButton1_DropDowItemClicked(object sender, ToolStripItemClickedEventArgs e)
        {
            if (t != null)
            {
              
                t.Image = null;
                splitButton1.Refresh();
            }

           
            e.ClickedItem.Image = Bitmap.FromFile(@"../../help.png");
            t = e.ClickedItem;
           
        }

Hi Khanh 
 
Thank you for your update. 
 
From your update, we could understood that you want to maintain the image for previous selected item alone. However in this click event, we could not save the previous selected item , but you can able to set the image for specified item alone by comparing the text property using the following code: 
 
Code: 
 
 
 
private void SplitButton1_DropDowItemClicked(object sender, ToolStripItemClickedEventArgs e) 
        { 
            var  t = e.ClickedItem; 
             if(t != null && e.ClickedItem.Text == splitButton1.DropDownItems[0].Text) 
            { 
                e.ClickedItem.Image = Bitmap.FromFile(@"../../help.png"); 
                t = e.ClickedItem; 
            } 
             
        } 
 
 
 
Please try this solution and let us know if it is helpful.

Hi Khanh, 
 
Thank you for your update. 
 
As per your update, you want to maintain the previous selected item. So we have checked the provided code and it works on maintaining the previous selected item on each dropdown opening operation. You can use this to achieve your requirement. 
 
Please let us know if you have any other concerns.
